About the Australia passport
The Australia passport is grouped with Oceania in this index. It ranks #11 globally and #2 among 14 Oceania passports, with a mobility score of 184.
Its current access profile includes 126 visa-free destinations,42 visas on arrival, and 16 destinations using an ETA. The detailed list below separates these from eVisas, traditional visas, and any officially documented entry restrictions.
Australian tax residence is distinct from citizenship and immigration status. Residents generally declare worldwide income, but temporary residents have a narrowly defined foreign-income exception.
Entry rules can change without notice. Treat this as a comparison tool and verify official requirements before travel.
